Summary
The White House Correspondents’ Association canceled comedian Amber Ruffin’s headlining appearance at its annual fundraising dinner.
The decision follows concerns over Ruffin’s anti-Trump comments and growing tensions with the Trump White House, which has restricted press access and pool assignments.
The association’s board voted unanimously for the change, seeking to avoid political division.
This shift mirrors its 2019 approach, when historian Ron Chernow spoke instead of a comedian amid similar Trump-era scrutiny.
Once again demonstrating their collective cowardice…
Obeying in advance. Can’t risk upsetting Don Mangolini. The Mafia Admin wins again.
🙄 🙄
Instead just one comedian, you get house full of clowns
Should just cancel the whole dinner. This is not normal times anyways.
Trump has no sense of humor. The only reason he ever smiles and laughs is when he knows he’s getting something over on somebody.
It’s not a shocker that he couldn’t even handle the mildest of criticisms from a comedian.
The lizard suit wasn’t even designed to do that, but he’s such a great man he made it happen anyway.
Spineless preemptively compliant cowards.
Little baby pee pee snowflakes
Lmao “seeking to avoid political division”. No you’re avoiding dissonance. The GOP MO is to stoke political division, it’s literally what gives them power.
Also “anti-trump” comments instead of just calling them concerns or critiques.
Language like this is how consent is manufacturered. Language is powerful at subtly shift how one percieves a situation, and leading people to a predetermined conclusion.
Absolute PUSSY.
Whoever downvoted, you’re wrong but at least you deprived me of literally nothing in the name of the biggest pussy on the planet. There is not a chance in hell that this was handed down by the board, this was handed down by a man who can’t take a fucking joke even when he is (MAYBE) the most powerful man on the planet, that is the definition of a giant PUSSY.
The news media is not supposed to be friendly with those in power, no matter who is in power. They’re supposed to be a pain in the ass of the president (every president). They’re supposed to be the Fourth Estate! They’re supposed to be part of the checks and balances. It’s always irked me that they do this correspondent’s dinner and get all buddy buddy with the Whitehouse.
Cancel the entire dinner.
It’s probably going to be cold hamberders again anyway.
Pussies.
Cowards.
People call Republicans stupid, but it looks like they may have finally learned a lesson after Naomi Wolf’s headliner in 2019: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8IYPnnsYJw
Michelle Wolf, not Naomi Wolf. Naomi Wolf is a right-wing conspiracy nut these days.
Ah damn, oops. You’re right, I wrote the wrong name even after fetching the Youtube link lol
